Fuzzi Bunz & Giddygumps!

Elegant Mommy is very excited that we are now carrying Fuzzi Bunz diapers and Giddygumps petal dresses & skirts!

Fuzzi Bunz will be available for sale within 2-3 weeks and will retail for $19.95. As always, discounts will apply if you are purchasing multiple diapers, plus you will save shipping & support local business! Here are some details on Fuzzi Bunz for those who have never tried them:

• The waterproof outer barrier keeps wetness contained.
• The soft microfleece inner layer gently touches your baby’s skin, pulling away moisture and keeping your baby rash-free, dry, and comfortable. The microfleece is made of 100% Polyester and is custom-milled.
• The unique, patented pocket-style opening enables you to customize the absorbency to fit your baby needs. Stuff the pocket with inserts, a pre-fold, or even a hand towel!
• The updated top-stitching circles the top of the diaper and the tabs, providing reinforcement and demonstrating our commitment to making high quality diapers that hold up wash after wash.
• The larger, square tabs hold the diaper in place to prevent sagging and provide better grip during diaper changes.
• The stretchier elastic around the legs provides maximum comfort for baby.
• The leg casings create “mini-gussets” to keep messes contained and leaks at bay.
• The adjustable snap settings grow with your baby and enable you to adjust for your baby’s waist and leg sizes.
• The variety of sizes – including preemie, small, medium, large, petite toddler, and extra-large – ensure that FuzziBunz™ properly fit your baby.
• The wide-array of color choices makes diapering fun!

We are also very excited to be carrying petal dresses and petal skirts from a former South Dakota woman, Angie Mediger of Giddygumps! I fell in love with these dresses when I first looked at them! I think Corey would be a little upset with me if I put Chase in one of these cute dresses, but they are so adorable for little ones! We have dresses and skirts available in the store & if we don't have a color or design you are looking for, we would be happy to order it in for you. You will not be disappointed with these precious dresses & skirts...what a wonderful choice for upcoming holiday pictures!

Today's Featured Business!

We have decided to use this blog to help promote the other businesses that we work with at Elegant Mommy. So, the first one that we are going to talk a bit about is someone that I have used personally many times in the past year and am always thrilled with her work...Michelle Sanderson of Dream It! Designs.

Are you looking for a creative card that is designed just for you and great personal service to go along with it? If so, you've found the perfect design studio. Michelle is an extremely talented Mommy to 2 boys who can take you existing photos and digitally enhance them into exquisite cards! We have used Michelle for birthday invitations & birth announcements with wonderful results! Best of all, her prices are extremely reasonable and you're supporting a local Mom!

Check out all of Michelle's work at: www.dreamitdesign.net

Our New Blog!

We have been wanting to start a blog for Elegant Mommy for quite a while now & today is as good of a day as any to get this going! We should have done this a long time ago because this was WAY easier than I thought it was going to be :)

The intent of this blog is to keep all of our incredible customers updated on happenings in the store and to get feedback from people on what they would like to see in the store, workshops they would like to attend, or just to tell us what is happening in your life!

As many of you know, we welcomed our 3rd child to the Elegant Mommy family on June 3rd. Chase has been an awesome blessing to our family and we are enjoying everything that God puts in front of us everyday...okay so maybe "enjoying" isn't the best word to use, maybe I should say we are "dealing" with everything God puts in front of us :) Seriously though Chase is a great baby and we have enjoyed all of our bonding time with him. However, I do have a business to run, so I am hoping to get Elegant Mommy running full speed ahead again in the coming weeks! My wonderful friends have done an incredible job keeping the store running smoothly for the last six weeks and I praise God for you! I don't know what I would do without the Elegant Mommy Kelly's! So look to see me at the store a lot more!

There are some exciting things that we are going to be offering at Elegant Mommy in the coming weeks! Mark your calendar as you don't want to miss out on these exciting workshops and other opportunities!
